Mill Spring, SC – First, what is a gasser? Wikipedia defines a Gasser as “a type of hot rod car originally used for drag racing. This style of custom car build originated in United States in the late 1950s and continued until the early 1970s. In the days before Pro Stock.”
On November 3-4th at Shadyside Dragway in Shelby NC the South East Gassers Association (SEGA) will introduce 15 year old Brilee Stott. Brilee as the youngest driver to ever driver a legal 4 speed gasser.
SEGA association organizer Quain Scott said “Brilee feels that he has the ability to do this because he has not been raised on video games like most kids his age.”
“He was always outdoors in the country and got his first dirt bike at 3 years old. Then at 4 years old he entered his first motocross race. From that point his list of accomplishments are so long we posted them at the end of this story.”
Scott added “Brilee won’t be starting out in one of the lower classes, he’s jumping right in the middle of the fire in the very tough B/GAS class. Brilee along with friends and family put together a very odd combination for his debut, an American motors Rambler with a 328 cubic inch small block Chevy for power.”
“Many have ask can he row a 4 speed with the older experience guys at his young age, I guess you’ll have to be there November 4th to find out.”
